Operations and Maintenance Manual

6.4 Air/Oil Separator
The air/oil separator should be changed every 4000 hours, once a year, or when there is
excessive oil vapor in the discharge air, or as indicated by a maintenance indicator, which
ever occurs first. Higher temperature operation can cause the element to plug faster.
Consistent operation in temperatures over 180
o
F will require more frequent separator
element changes.
DA GER
Hot oil under pressure will cause severe injury, death, or property damage.
Be sure the compressor is shutdown and pressure relieved before attempting to
remove the oil filter, separator, oil fill, or change the oil.
